I'm a backend-focused full-stack engineer building scalable, fault-tolerant systems in Go and TypeScript. Experienced in microservice design, PostgreSQL and MongoDB data modelling, Redis caching, and high-availability cloud architectures (balancing, replication, containers) with a research background in IoT. I'm comfortable owning a service from schema to frontend.
My main focus has shifted towards back-end development and cloud-based solution design. My beginnings were on the frontend of the web, but now I try to work the full web and the systems spectrum.
Born and raised in Santarém - Portugal, I've finished all of my education (UPSantarem) in my hometown. I spend my time reading and doing programming experiments, and the occasional guitar session. I've also had the pleasure to travel abroad, to Hungary (university relation's and knowledge sharing) , and nationally to the Madeira island, as part of the national Poliempreende competition.
